6 Bed Detached House For Sale

Hill House was built in 1938 and has been a much loved family home to our vendor clients for some 45 years. In addition to the six bedroom accommodation of the main house there is a fully self-contained two bedroom annexe known as Hill House Cottage. Most of the rooms overlook the gardens with some taking in views of neighbouring countryside and Dartmoor.

Outside, Hill House is approached via a sweeping gravelled drive which sets the property nicely back from the lane. There is extensive parking, a row of three garages, two workshops and garden stores. The gardens and grounds provide a magnificent private setting with large expanses of sweeping lawn, a variety of established shrubs and trees, enclosure with stables, room for a pony paddock and a large vegetable garden. The whole plot extends to 1.71 acres as measured on Promap.

Situation - Hill House occupies a superb position on the rural edge of Buckfastleigh within a few minutes drive to the A38/Devon Expressway, making for fast access to the cities of Exeter and Plymouth, as well as enjoying lovely views across Dartmoor National Park.

Buckfastleigh town is within walking distance and has its own range of independent shops and amenities including doctors surgery, primary school, swimming pool and tennis courts. There is a post office at nearby Buckfast, senior state school at Ashburton and Independent school at Stover.
